Institutional Economic Architecture
I advise banks, advisory firms, protocols, and funds on token design, stablecoin mechanisms, settlement architecture, and treasury and governance decisions that cannot be treated in isolation.

What I Solve
01 / Incentive Architecture
Failure surface
Emissions, staking rewards, and contributor incentives can fund measurable activity while retention and system value weaken.
Decision output
Actor map, incentive-flow analysis, leakage register, and mechanism recommendations.
02 / Treasury & Emissions
Failure surface
Treasury policy fails when reserves, emissions, unlocks, operating budgets, and market support are modeled separately.
Decision output
Treasury scenario matrix, reserve constraints, emissions envelope, and decision thresholds.
03 / Governance Systems
Failure surface
Broad decision surfaces, delegation inertia, and unclear intervention rights create latency, capture risk, and operating ambiguity.
Decision output
Decision-rights map, governance tree, escalation logic, and operating rules.
04 / Market Structure & Liquidity
Failure surface
Rented liquidity, routing leakage, market-maker dependence, and funding exposure can disappear when incentives or volatility change.
Decision output
Liquidity routing map, market-quality review, dependency analysis, and intervention priorities.
05 / Institutional Translation
Failure surface
Protocol-native assumptions often remain illegible as controls, obligations, risk surfaces, and operating constraints.
Decision output
Institutional architecture brief, evidence pack, risk map, and diligence-ready decision surface.
Engagement Model
Pricing anchors establish fit. Final scope depends on system surface, evidence availability, and implementation depth.
2-3 weeks
From EUR 2-5k
A bounded diagnosis before a mechanism, policy, or capital decision hardens.
4-8 weeks
Typically EUR 5-20k+
A complete redesign or new economic architecture for a defined system surface.
Monthly cadence
Scoped
Ongoing architecture support for teams making interconnected system decisions.
Working Method
01
Locate the failure surface before selecting a mechanism.
02
Test the variables, actors, and pressure states that change the decision.
03
Convert constraints into mechanisms, rights, and operating logic.
04
Produce artifacts that implementation, governance, and institutions can review.
